🌌 Welcome to Star Wars: Blood of the Remnants! 🚀 🕒 In a time of galactic unrest, set in the year 4 ABY, the remnants of the empire persist.

🌌🌟 Discord Server: Star Wars: The New Sith Order 🌟🌌 🔮 A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away... The Emperor and Vader fell in the Battle of Endor, bringing an end to the Galactic Civil War. With no leadership, the Imperials scattered into smaller warlord states or hid in remote regions. The Rebels formed the New Republic, and Luke Skywalker established the New Jedi Order to protect it. 💀 Now, a year later, the Sith acolytes gather on Korriban, reminiscent of the Old Republic era. Unbeknownst to the Jedi and the New Republic, the Force is once again balanced, and the Sith grow stronger, launching secretive attacks with Mandalorians and Sith droids. The Mandalorians deceive the Republic under Maul's command, complicating negotiations to end the assault. ⚡️A power vacuum in the absence of the Empire has thrown the galaxy into chaos. Pirates and Criminal Syndicates exploit the lack of authority, expanding their reach. The New Republic redirects its attention to combat these criminal organizations and restore justice, inadvertently allowing the Imperials to thrive in the shadows. 📚 With over 2k
